VOLUNTEER

LA Zoo

Of the surplus that is collected, approximately 10 tons per month is shared with animals at the LA City Zoo. This food would have been landfill, but instead, is donated by World Harvest. The program started in December of 2017 when Republic Services and World Harvest partnered up to find ways to better use the valuable food. Since the program began in December 2017, in 6 months alone, over 74 tons of food that would have been wasted, was instead shared with Zoo animals.

COMPOST

Nothing goes to waste at World Harvest!In fact, all produce, vegetable, and bread, pastries, pastas collected by World Harvest, but unable to be distributed to families or animals at the LA ZOO, because of spoilage or damage, is sent to composting by Republic Services.

Approximately 40 tons per month is processed at Agromin, where the food waste is turned into nutrient rich soil amendment.

Since the composting program began in February 2018 to June 2018, over180 tons of spoiled food have been composted.
